Hey guys, is it possible to add a Sirius unit to the factory system that will be controlled through the factory radio? The truck in question is my boss's 2005 Lincoln Mark LT. When you hit the AUX button, it brings up SAT 1, SAT 2, etc, but it doesn't list any ID #s.

 

Ya it's possible, I did it
Do you get anything on sat1 like a preview chnnel?
Try holding button s 3 & 6 to see if it brings up more info

 

ID#? The Sirius ESN? While displaying one of the SATs, press AUX and Preset 1 at the same time to display the ESN.

 

Ok, I'll give that a shot tomorrow. And no, it doesn't bring up Sirius preview like it does in my dad's Fusion.

 

I added the OEM Sirius module to my '05 and use the Aux button to cycle through the 3x6 Sirius stations.
eBay has the answer:
Ford OEM Sirius with harness

OR:
Non-OEM but should work great:

 

I couldn't find the ESN when I activated the Sirius in my truck so I called Sirius and they just asked me for my Vin# and were able to activate it like that...Might work?

 

Hmm... I wonder if this has it then? It has the round antenna on the roof on the passenger side.

 

If it's got the antenna then theres a good chance it has the Sirius already...

 

Yeah, cause my '08 came "Sirius-ready" but there was no antenna on my roof and while walking me through trying to set up my radio, I discovered I was missing the antenna and harness. $95 to get this hooked up at Ford, but I have the App and an AUX jack so I'm good

 

Almost certain that the Sirius receiver is already built in then. And yes, SlammaJamma is right, as long as the factory-installed receiver is still in there, Sirius can also activate it by looking up the ESN on their side with the VIN.

 

Well, I think the receiver is actually built in. I was messing with it today, hit the AUX button and SAT popped up. Pressed a few buttons, and it said to call Sirius.
